Palermo president Zamparini says Southampton target Dybala "world best in 2 years"

Palermo president Maurizio Zamparini is desperate to keep hold of Paulo Dybala.

The young Argentine striker is a top January target for Southampton boss Ronald Koeman.

Zamparini admits he needs to find outside investment to help him keep hold of Dybala.

"In two years the best in the world will be Dybala, who is the best striker in Italy," declared Zamparini. "In two years we'll talk.

"Today he is worth more than €40 million, but I hope to find a partner who can bring money to Palermo and keep him here."
